That yoghurt is chuffin' excellent too and there's a nice welcoming tub of it in the fridge for tomorrow's and Wednesday's breakfast.
AND I'm awarding myself extra self-control points as I didn't buy the stolen bites and I could just tell they were luscious.

It is in my local store. I might have bought some hazelnut stollen but managed to resist everything else.

They've got some Panetone and other stuff but not lots.

Why didn't you take them back then? They're very good about refunds ime. The pc I'm currently using was from Aldi, £400 iirc, all my/son's MP3/4s have been Aldi ones too. Son's monitor died just within it's 3 yr warranty and they fixed it no bother, even emailed me a postage label. No complaints here about either store tbh. Do wish so many people hadn't cottoned on to them though. I used to ok shopping in Aldi but every time it's getting busier
Didn't have receipt so wasn't sure they'd take them back
Other than those, haven't had any other problems. I like Lidl
(For those that don't want Lidl getting even busier, it really is a shit shop

8am on weekday mornings is great but that's true of most supermarkets that don't rely on self service tills.
Yes, but do check the date on it - the mince pies currently out in Streaham Lidl are only good until early November!

A shed on a ditch.
Yeah, but they wont last till November, eat em now!
I've just realised that despite often fantasising about it when I read about them, I have never been to either shop ever I will remedy that forthwith, cos they sound fucking ace 
Do they ever sell boat / sailing gear?

Sometimes, but not often. You can check on their websites what the special products are for that week.

spelling is overrated
Lidls do, like one week in a year, they do all sorts of niche items for a week - horsey stuff, bikers kit, sailing stuff....I've just realised that despite often fantasising about it when I read about them, I have never been to either shop ever

made redundant( 3x time in 6 years but am not looking for symapthy as I work in a vile sector) again and its a rite of passage to do a weekly lidl shop now- pretty much dry goods only unless they something wonderful on offer ( tip - always shop after you have just eaten), supplemeted with veg from peckahm rye lane - srlsy, works about half the price of a similar sainsburys/ waitrose shop. The queues are tolerable, the chocolate makes it worthwhile.

oh and Im pretty sure the peckham one does semmel buns for that proper german experience
Liked for everything bar you being laid off yet again - better luck with your next job.

They have their own Marathon ripoffs which are just as nice and you get loads more for the price
The twix equivalents have slightly more savoury caramel than the real thing too.

Went in to Lidl today, bought a bucket of Turkish yog

and things falling out fridge, yeah that much VEG!), huge ass bottle of olive oil, free range chicken, some nice organic mince, some biccies as a treat oh and some bread for dunkering in my soup at lunch. comes in at under £30.

I have just tried the Turkish yog and can confirm its fucking lush, its almost solid but tastes so good, mix it up with some of their figs = heaven. Buy it now people!!!

Their dirt cheap basic milk chocolate is no worse than cadbury's and is half price this weekend at 17p a bar - I often see people buy them by the box loadsThe twix equivalents have slightly more savoury caramel than the real thing too.

Not even hazelnut stollen? Hazelnut's have essential fatty acids you know.
The reduced fat nurnbergers are pretty healthy...I know. But the bits that aren't hazelnuts are too sugary for this squirrel's body to handle
